ESPN:
As a die-hard sports fan, getting my hands on the latest sports news is a necessity. ESPN is one of the most popular sports news companies in the United States. They share news on their website, social media platforms, television network, and mobile apps. If something major happens in sports, ESPN is going to report the news faster than any other news network that covers sports. By following ESPN for sports news, I know I'm going to be one of the first people to know about any breaking news. ESPN is the place to go to get fast, reliable news about your favorite teams and athletes - check them out here with this link: https://www.espn.com/
Benzinga:
Benzinga is my go-to news source for anything related to the stock market. I've been investing for a year-and-a-half on Robinhood ever since the COVID-19 pandemic took over the United States. Since I had limited knowledge about stocks, Benzinga provided me with much-needed updates about what was going on with different companies. If a stock shot up or dropped really low in a day, chances are that Benzinga published an article explaining what's going on. When a stock changes drastically in a day, that doesn't necessarily mean I should act on it. That's why I go to Benzinga and get the full story.

Google News:
Whenever I want to stay up-to-date with daily news around the United States and around the world, I go to the news section of Google to see the trending articles. Most people tend to use specific sources like the New York Times or USA Today for daily news, but being able to see different publications of similar articles gives me greater insight into what's going on. A topic covered by one news source may be different than another, but with Google News, I can quickly look through numerous articles in a short amount of time and gather all the information that I need to understand and formulate an opinion about a news topic. Here's the link to Google News: https://news.google.com/topstories?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en
RocaNews:
RocaNews is a new-age news source that was created to deliver news without bias. This was the pivotal reason I started following them for global news. With over 1 million followers on Instagram, their posts are directed at a younger audience, specifically current high school students, college students, and other young adults. Their meme-style posts are pleasing to look at, and the following slides, once a user swipes left, feature relevant pictures with quick, easy-to-read articles about the current topic without any bias. RocaNews just provides the information, while I, as a reader, am left to formulate my own opinion without being swayed left or right politically.

YouTube News:
Similar to Google News, YouTube News shows a wide array of news sources posting videos to their respective channels about the most trending topics. Like I mentioned before, I like to get different perspectives. Something covered by CNN is most likely going to be covered differently by Fox News. One thing I really like about YouTube news is that they show short snippets about certain topics. I can learn in a couple minutes what most television watchers wait to learn in an hour. Probably the thing I like most is since these snippets are YouTube videos, I can see the audience's opinions about it. Users can like/dislike videos, and they can also leave comments underneath the videos too. Here's a link to YouTube News: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYfdidRxbB8Qhf0Nx7ioOYw
